Rocks & Water Painting Workshops | Grasby Art Studio Calgary
Imagine spending a relaxed morning in a warm, light-filled studio — brush in hand, learning to capture the shimmer of water and the texture of stone on canvas. That is exactly what awaits you in our Rocks & Water painting workshops.
These sessions are designed to help you master two of the most rewarding landscape elements, building on the foundations you already have.
What You'll Learn
Painting rock form, weight and surface texture
Moving water — flow, transparency and reflection
Building depth with colour temperature and value
Composing a scene with a clear focal area

Working with Teresa
These intermediate workshops are led by studio founder Teresa Grasby. Teresa takes on the subjects artists find most challenging and shares the efficient process she has developed for them, worked in a loose, expressive style. Most artists use the four sessions to build one large-format canvas — a finished feature wall painting to take home.
